Vegetable Soup

When my children say that their soup is too hot to eat, I add a few frozen vegetables to their bowls instead of adding ice cubes. The soup cools a bit as the veggies quickly thaw to a perfect tenderness, and the kids get some extra vitamins. —Wendee Bauer, Daytona Beach, Florida

We always seem to have venison in the freezer, so I came up with the recipe for this delicious soup as a different way to use some of that meat. It makes a great lunch or light supper served with garlic bread and a salad.
